117. Wake up dormant volcanoes
Agent Garrett is clearly a bad talker, and his status as a Level 8 agent makes him self-serving.
Professor Kathy Black couldn't help but roll her eyes at him after exhausting her life's cultivation, she took a deep breath, and then politely introduced herself: "I'm Kathy Black, a professor of energy science at S.H.I.E.L.D., and the next three people are my students. β
"Very well, please show your ID." Garrett said in a deep voice.
Professor Black handed over everyone's papers, and after making sure they were correct, Garrett stepped out of the way.
"You're early, let's go first."
Professor Black didn't bother to talk nonsense with the fierce-looking Agent Garrett, and went straight to the point with Luo Xiu and them.
Standing next to the Cosmic Cube is Agent Sitwell, who seems to have some friendship with Professor Black.
"Professor Black, you've always arrived so timely." Sitwell said with a smile.
When Black saw Agent Sitwell, he immediately put on a friendly smile: "Agent Sitwell, it's a pleasure to meet you." β
"Me too, these three are your students?" Sitwell asked, looking at Rosho.
"Yes." Professor Black proudly introduced Sitwell, "You should feel familiar with this, right?" He's the mechanical kid who made Manhattan chickens uneasy. β
Sitwell suddenly realized and nodded to Luo Xiu: "I've admired it for a long time." β
Luo Xiu couldn't cry or laugh: "Make the chickens and dogs in Manhattan restless? Professor, that doesn't sound like a good word......"
Professor Black didn't dare to answer, but quickly changed the topic: "Ahem, Agent Sitwell, how is S.H.I.E.L.D.'s research on the Cosmic Rubik's Cube doing?" β
At the mention of this question, Sitwell scratched his big bald head in frustration.
"To be honest, the situation is not ideal, we can detect that there is an inexhaustible source of energy in the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and we can also convert this part of the energy into high-power weapons like the Hydra during World War II, but to be honest, these energies are only the tip of the iceberg for the Cosmic Rubik's Cube." Agent Sitwell said in a deep voice.
Professor Black frowned and asked, "You mean to say that there is still a lot of untapped energy in the Cosmic Rubik's Cube?" β
Sitwell nodded: "Suffice it to say, the current Cosmic Cube seems to be a dormant volcano, and all we can use is the temperature it transmits to the surface through thick rock layers...... In fact, its true energy comes from the hot lava in the depths of the volcano, but if we want to see it, we must awaken it. β
"Is that an exaggeration?" Fitz, who had been listening, was shocked and said, "The energy released by the current Cosmic Cube is already huge, right?" Could it just be the energy it releases in its dormant state? β
"That's right." Sitwell nodded.
Zhenma asked worriedly: "So if you rashly awaken the energy of the Universe Rubik's Cube, will such a powerful energy directly destroy the earth?" β
"This ......," Sitwell whispered, "is at risk." β
"What a risk! How do you know if you don't try it? At this moment, an arrogant voice came from behind, and it was Agent Garrett who came over with a few people.
The person he brought with him was another research group of S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy, and the lead mentor was another professor at S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy - Thomas Davidson.
Professor Davidson was a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who once fought alongside Garrett before retiring due to injuries and using his knowledge of mechanics to become a teacher at S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy.
"Professor Davidson." Casey Black said hello politely.
Professor Davidson nodded in return.
Agent Sitwell smiled and asked, "What does Professor Davidson think?" β
Professor Davidson smiled lightly and said calmly, "Actually, I have been involved in the research of this energy source since Nick Fury started the Cosmic Cube project...... "He was obviously showing off his high status in S.H.I.E.L.D. and S.H.I.E.L.D. Academyβ"And I think I know enough about the characteristics of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube." β
Professor Black resisted the urge to roll his eyes: "What are the characteristics of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube?" β
"After our precise calculations, the Cosmic Cube is composed of two parts, one of which is a core containing powerful energy, which can completely destroy the earth directly, in fact, it does not need to consume all the energy to easily complete this act......," Davidson said in a deep voice.
Fitz's expression became solemn: "Then why are we tinkering with something that can easily blow up the earth?" β
Davidson smiled: "Because the Cosmic Cube not only has an internal core, but also an external layer of protection, the outer cube is an existence similar to a protective layer, which can ensure that the energy at the core of the Cosmic Cube is not released, so as long as there is a protective layer, even if we wake up the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, it will not have an unstable explosion and destroy the earth." β
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized.
Luo Xiu knew that Professor Davidson was right, the Cosmic Cube was indeed composed of these two parts.
The cube on the outside acts as a protector and restriction, and the inner core is one of the six Infinity Primordial Stones, the Space Gem.
At this time, Agent Garrett laughed and said, "Haha, Thomas, I really have to rely on you!" Now that you're sure this thing isn't going to destroy the planet, it's time to think about how to wake it up, right? I don't want to be like Hydra to build some weapons that only kill, I want to make it work! β
Agent Sitwell also asked, "Professor Davidson, how do we wake up the Cosmic Rubik's Cube?" β
Luo Xiu and the others also listened carefully.
Professor Thomas Davidson was embarrassed and said: "Actually, so far, I haven't thought of a good way, the current suggestion given by the research team is to use a beam of powerful energy to pass through the cube of the Cosmic Cube and hit its core, in this case, maybe you can wake up the Cosmic Rubik's Cube." β
"So what are you waiting for? Bump it and try it! Garrett said roughly.
Davidson shook his head: "But the energy required for this impact is about 1.88*10^21 joules." β
Garrett didn't hear what was going on, and asked, "So what?" How much energy do we need, can we just do it? β
Professor Black couldn't listen anymore, and coughed: "Agent Garrett, the energy used by human beings every year is only about 5*10^20 joules, and the energy required for this impact is 3.76 times the annual energy used by all human beings, do you think this experiment can be completed?" β
Professor Davidson shook his head and said, "And even if we can provide such a large amount of energy, there is currently no instrument that can accurately transmit such a powerful energy." β
Hearing this, Agent Garrett was extremely depressed: "What should I do then? Let's just watch the volcano continue to sleep?! β
Then a voice rang out from beside him: "I think I can try." β
